New Zealand golfer Lydia Ko sets another record as the youngest winner (15 yrs 4 mths) in history of the LPGA Tour after winning the Canadian Open over the weekend, breaking the record of American Lexi Thompson (16 yrs 7 mths).
The Korean-born became the youngest winner of a professional event earlier this year (broken later by Canadian Brooke Henderson), and she’s making another phenomenal leap with this achievement. She’s yet to turn pro though, and according to statement she’s likely to stay amateur until she finishes her high school.
